Through it all she remained alone, 12 from far away. I wondered what would happen to this quiet child, once so happy, now suddenly so quiet. I hoped the festivities would please her. But nothing did. The students made the fried marbles (small balls, made of glass or stone) and competed with one another to bring the 13 ones.The day of gift-giving finally came.

She said nothing. “For me?” I asked. She said not a word, but 17 her head. I took the box and carefully opened it. There inside, shining green, a fried marble hung from a golden chain.

It was started because there was a Mothers Day, and just because some Americans thought that if we had a Mothers Day, we should also have a Fathers Day. Fathers Day has become important in North America. And shopkeepers (店主) found it was a good way to get people to buy presents for their fathers, presents from their shops.By the way, very few countries have a Fathers Day, though some have Childrens Day, or a special day for boys and another for girls. More and more countries are having Mothers Day, so maybe Fathers Day will also become popular before too long. Now, what do people in North America do on Fathers Day? The newspapers, radios, and TV tell children what they should do-buy a Fathers Day present for your father. They even tell a wife to buy a Fathers Day present-not for her father but for her husband, even if he is a not yet a father.

First of all, Valentines Day is not a holiday from work. No one gets a day off. In many countries it is observed by sending cards to your friends and candy or flowers to your husband or wife if youre married, or to your boyfriend or girlfriend if youre not married. In Japan, some girls even give their fathers chocolates.Why is this holiday for people in love called Valentines Day?One explanation comes from a Christian man whose name was something like “Valentine”. He lived at a time when the Roman Emperor refused to allow any Roman soldiers to get married for any reason. Many couples came to Valentine to be married. So he would secretly marry them in a Christian ceremony. He was discovered and put in prison by the Emperor. One tradition says that he wrote notes to his friends by marking on leaves and then throwing them out of the window of his prison. The leaves were shaped like a heart. Valentine was killed on February 14th and Valentines Day recalls his tragic death.On Valentines Day, American elementary school children make or buy Valentine cards, write the name of a classmate on them, and take them to school and put them in a special Valentines Day box. And then on that day the box is opened, the cards are taken out and given out.( ) 26. Which of the following is true about Valentines Day?A.
